Ok, so Toonami’s gonna be airing Batman movies on August 15th and 22nd. Never thought I’d see the day.
 
Also, this past weekend has been their lowest rated of all time. Not even Super did good, and that’s pretty troubling.

@CaptainXtra  
Oh and by the way, Games will be okay

@Penguin Dragneel  
that’s depressing.

@Angrybrony  
Tell me about it. Every show made below freakin’ 350,000 viewers.

so this a p good webcomic.  

@Penguin Dragneel  
Are they the animated or live-action ones? The animated ones would make sense on Toonami, and frankly they need to air more, because the animated Batman movies are sadly underrated, yet good.
 
I’ll even say the “Batman VS TMNT” adaptation was pretty damn good. A love letter to both franchises.

@icey wicey 1517  
ok there was someone in the comments cleaning the only giving the game to make up for the suicide squad movie losses.  
even though I’m pretty sure than me was actually a hit at the box office and he’s not talking about how it’s did with critics

@icey wicey 1517  
That’s weird cause WB Games Montreal was working on a Suicide Squad game that was canceled that Arkham Origins set up.

@Beau Skunky  
The animated ones. They’ll be airing Batman Year One, The Dark Knight Returns Parts 1+2, and Batman Gotham Knight.

@Penguin Dragneel  
Those are good ones.
 
“Mask of the Phantasm” is on Netflix now too.

@Holofan4life  
What a bizarre hill to fight on.

I watched a li’l of the anime “High Score Girl” on Netflix, and it’s kinda interesting seeing an anime take place in the early ’90s, during the “golden age” of arcade games, back when Street Fighter 2 Capcom & Sega games were as popular then as Pokémon, Fortnite, or Minecraft are now.

karma’s a bitch, eggman.  

@Holofan4life  
 
Excited!

I’m going and I like action transformers movies and pretty much the first line in 07 matrix pretty clear that bumblebee is its own thing in its own universe.  
Although other details in the film and behind the scenes makes it clear it did start out as a prequel

@northern haste  
It was always intended to be a prequel, but with how much better it was received compared to the other movies, as well as how much it legitimately contradicts the old movies(which already contradicted themselves several times), they eventually decided to make it a reboot

 
I happened across a review of this book. Sounded cool. I went to Amazon.770 dollars.
